Structure H: A possible kerbed cairn sits on the east facing shoulder of the hill to the north of the previous structure (NB 12392 33383). This measures 7m by 6m and is 1.5 - 2m in height, although there is thick heather covering it. Three kerbstones are visible in an eroding section on the southwest side of the cairn.
